The people who are acting like losing Locker is no big deal and isn't a major blow need to rethink exactly what Locker has done so far in this season. He had some mediocre starts in Pittsburgh and Houston but over the last game and a half he really started to prove himself to be a capable QB. Our team's ceiling is much higher with Locker playing the way he has for the last two weeks then it is with Fitzpatrick under center and it can take us from a potentially great team to a middle of the pack team very quickly.

I think they're the best team in the NFL- but they'll lose game they're supposed to win.

So automatically assuming they'll beat us is kind of silly. This is the NFL. And we're good.

I'm being realistic. If we lose to SF and SEA but split with KC/STL we'll still be in good shape. It's going to be hard to replace a QB with no turnovers with Fitz and an underwhelming OL so far. Our defense has been good but that can only take us so far.

Negative initial X-rays means no obvious (severe) break. That's good because that would be season ending and very difficult to rehab to level pre-injury. Could be minor "hairline" fracture revealed tomorrow or next few days as swelling and bone repair reveals location.

So we won't know anything definitive until the next day or two but no news thus far is good news regarding career ending injuries.
